Oh really?! It looked like, from looking at the build-*/cbcstep3.log files,
that these optimizations are safe.

Ack.

Please enable only base-mod-check for the moment.

Reason: Distros will usually enable some more modules than the 4 BASE_MODULES.
But the other modules after often not up-to-date, and I wouldn't want that
the packagers of clisp think that clisp by itself does not pass its testsuite.

Or if you really want to enable full-mod-check, please do so in a different step
(cbcstep5.log), so that's easy to distinguish these test failures from those
in clisp proper.
